Nitrous Oxide
Im thinking about putting nos in my car. Does anyone have nos in their GS or know of anyone who has nos in their GS. I know someone who has nos in an Acura and he says that when ever he shoots the nitrous goes through his pistens and then stays in there. The nitrous left over supposedly is harmful to the pistens. Now he is trying to sell his Acura but the engine is heavily rusted and corroded. He blames it on the nos. But i have also heard other opinions. A guy at a shot called Upgrade Engineering says that he has never heard of nos staying in your pistens and ruining them. Can anyone help me with this or give me any suggestions.

I've only heard of one guy with a GS on this board that actually has nitrous installed, and unfortunately he hasn't had it in long enough to build up the kind of empirical evidence you're looking for.

You might want to do a search for nitrous on "all forums" as I recall a couple of SC's may have had it in for some time. Pm the guys that do have it to get their input.

Thats nothing to play with I can tell you that. I had NOS on my Legend and never had that problem. I guess it depends on what type of setup you get....Wet shot or Dry shot!

Diff between dry and wet
dry is for stock or minor upgrade cars. cars with intake, exhuast, stuff like that. Wet it for turbo or supercharged cars. Wet would be more dangerous to use in a less extreme modified engine.

what kind of mods have you done to your GS? dont want to be runing a dry shot on a factory setup...i know it can take a lil shot but just be safe...as far as the nos not escaping the chambers...it could happen...i think he had a compression problem or something...cause when the chamber opens all the gass,air , and nos should leave and give you the boost you need...

hit up Cmputerwiz. He has the 55-75 hp shot Zex dry system in his 300. Easy, no big deal. Your car should be able to handle up to 100 shot before you need fuel system upgrades. Stick to 75 to be safe. All NOS does is lean out your fuel mixture, so you need to keep plenty of fuel going in to keep it from leaning out. The 3.0L inline 2jz is heavily over built, it can handle a lot.
